Flagstaff Beeping

[adamscabana]

Hi!

I have a forest river flagstaff popup trailer. The beeping is driving me and my dog bananas. I have unhooked the battery, pulled the smoke detector batteries out, shut down the circuit breaker on the power converter and pulled the fuses. It is still beeping. I can't figure out where the beeping is coming from. I think I am close to the sound...but then I don't find anything.

Help!

LP detector?

Do you have a LP detector? It will be close to the floor and it has a inline fuse so pulling fuses want stop it. If that is it take the screws out and take your inline fuse out. Replace LP detector if it is bad.

I pulled the battery out of the smoke detector. i'm still pretty new to the camper. Where is the LP detector? I see the co2 detector, but it doesn't have a battery.

I hooked everything up and plugged it in...hoping a charge would help.

i'll check for the inline fuse.

Mine will beep if the camper battery is low on charge.

I unscrewed the co2 detector and pulled the in line fuse. I still hear the beeping.
Next I unplugged the battery and flipped the breakers to off on the power converter. I still hear beeps.

I had plugged in the trailer this morning to see if getting a charge would stop it help...but it still beeped.

It sounds weird, but with the battery hooked up it seemed to beep more frequently. it seems like it may be a little longer between beeps now.

If I am inside of the trailer and turn to the left (facing the back of the trailer) the co2 detector is on the floor on the right. It doesn't sound like that is making any noise. It sounds like it is coming from the back left. I don't know what is back there to beep.

The only thing I can think of is the fan on the ceiling. But that doesn't have its own fuse/power does it?

I don't know what to tell you. Maybe someone else will chime in that knows more.

The detector by the floor is most likely the LP detector. You might have a CO detector at the other end. The CO detector might look similar to a smoke detector.

Got it.

Long story short it was a smoke detector in the garage...and not in the trailer.

Thanks for the help!

My Dad (85 years old) had the same thing happen about 3 months ago. He was *sure* that was his power chair beeping and had even disconnected the battery cables.
I told him it had to be the smoke alarm in his house. Nope, said he could even hear it when he was out on the drive in his chair.

ummmm....yes, it was the smoke alarm battery in the house

Did he call me back to tell me I was right? NOPE. I found out when I called him the next day but I didn't say I told you so.

Replaced the LP detector only to find out that the 12V Battery was going down, replaced the battery, stopped chirping:
